A horrible shake first, then an encounter with a pothole, led me to this...
(I told the wife they didn't make the other rims anymore...and might as well replace all 4 tires)

AWD and OEM suspension
20x8.5-40 and 255/35
20x10-40 and 285/30

They're not as bronze as I wanted. The camera made them look darker than they are, so I used a filter to brighten them up.
I've only drove on them a couple miles so far, so I can't speak confidently yet on rubbing. There's no worries being static or at slower speeds though.

What did you have before, I just replaced 2 of my fast EV02s because of a pothole...I didnt think the impact was bad enough to ruin 2 .....
PS: they are damn fine looking rims

I bought the car with some Revolution Racing 20's.
Either a rim(s) or tire(s) was bad, b/c the "buffeting" was almost unbearable.

No way I could run 20s here in canada on the east coast roads are way too bad.
You probably had a bent rim..I thought I only broke 1 rim and after replacing it it was still buffeting and it wasnt until I went to get my other rim on the same side checked for balance that I discovered it was bent, and they were 18 inch winters.
Driving on 20s here would be so harsh on our bad roads it would be insane.
 
Moved my Stinger on at 6 years, low profile tyres and these roads don't get along. Also had a buckled rear passenger wheel on the TSW Sprints.
 
From interior to exterior to high performance - everything you need for your Stinger awaits you...
You are going to be fine clearing suspension. In the rear you are pushing for "poke", but it looks like you're flush, just barely. The red lug nuts are a nice touch.

I plan on lowering, but not aggressively. I’m hoping that’ll take away from the poke just enough to keep the dirty sling away

Even with 255 in the rear, on 9.5" wide rims I was peppering the lower corners of the wheel wells until I put the mud guards on. You might consider that, to avoid eroding your paint. Those 285s and an added half an inch of exposure are going to "sling the dirt" alright.
